While making a strong comment on the report given by the government during the hearing in the Supreme Court on the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, CJI DY Chandrachud said that according to you, when 4447 CCTV cameras were installed, if so many cameras were installed, then why did this incident happen? In the case of RG Kar Medical College, tell us what equipment has been installed? The CJI further said that just telling about the funds will not work, also tell what progress has been made in the case?
CJI asked many sharp questions
Chief Justice Chandrachud said that the photograph of the victim’s dead body should be removed from all social media platforms with immediate effect. The CJI asked the CBI, do you have the challan? When the body is taken for post-mortem, the CBI said no. On this, the CJI asked where is that challan? Without that challan, the post-mortem cannot be done. On this, West Bengal government lawyer Sibal said that he also does not have it right now. They will find out and inform the court.
In this case, a petitioner questioned the initial investigation of the police. He said that post-mortem is never done at night in the country. Not only this, there is no seizure and search before filing an FIR, but it has happened in this case. The Supreme Court will now hear the case on September 17.
On August 9, a female trainee doctor was raped and murdered in Kolkata’s RG Kar Hospital, her body was recovered from the seminar hall in a semi-nude state. On August 10, the accused in this case, Sanjay Roy, was arrested. This case has reached the Supreme Court and in the last hearing, the Supreme Court had strongly reprimanded the Bengal government.
